The wonderful folks at BBTS managed to snag my orders before they left and combine them, so Predaking's arms and Windblade should all at doorstep by next week. Huzzah!

Good to hear! That's more of BBTS's great customer service, right there.

Mine's shipped out. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday next week I'll get them.

Appears that BBTS got hit with a barrage of new items this week. BBTS sent me a email a day or Two ago alerting me that 30th Roadbuster and Skybyte are shipping out to me.

I hit ship that Wednesday as soon as tigris processed and it got shipped friday morning. It arrives tuesday. Thats pretty quick I think. Especially since my order is huge, I mean really huge.

My package arrived today! :KREMZEEK:

Thought those completion kits will be in the box but they are actually just packed in a zip bag separately. Anyway, now I only need to find the time......

Are these the completion kits that comes with the new faces for forte and bovis? If yes, can you please post some pics of the new faces as i'm wondering what they look like.

Mine only came with the face for Tigris outside of the boxes. I haven't opened Tigris yet, even though I got my stuff Wednesday. (Finals week.) I will have to say that Talon was soooooooooo worth the wait. While the transformation is simple, it also makes for a very fun and playable figure. I don't know what my favorite form is. I almost wish I had three of each to have in each mode. MMC, you are my new favorite 3P company! FP is still really close (Columpio is friggin awesome too!)

My wait for Talon has created a situation where I have too many toys to play with right now. Looks like a good time for a week long vacation. I'll see if I can post some pics of things that haven't been posted yet. I'll also look for the new faces in the Tigris box.

[Edit] So, I decided to tear myself away from Talon to open Tigris, and I see no replacement heads for Fortis and Bovis. Bummer for those that wanted them. No biggie for me. I am perfectly fine with the existing heads!

The completion kit is the one that comes with a gold piece for feral rex's crotch armor and the 3 pairs of side weapons that goes into the hollow section of the individual bots' arm, or the various amount of 5mm ports. The new faces comes with Felisaber.

I was wondering if anyone has found a way to mount Leo Dux's large cannon, that comes with Tigris, in the center of his beast mode back? Maybe I have not looker close enough yet, but I am just not seeing a way.

Both Talon and Tigris are scheduled to arrive Tuesday via UPS. And yeah, getting Felisaber too. Although I'm not combining him with Predaking. He's staying separated as my Catilla.

Yeah, I see what you are saying. I can get it slightly off center, but not centered. This might require some creativity...

Only the extra face for Tigris (and other hole fillers). I believe the new faces for Bovis and Fortis come from Felisaber.

Same here. I now have 7 unopened figures in my closet and this is my first time having that many in one time. And I don't know which one to open first! Guess I'll just close my eyes and pick one. Yes, I need a vacation, too. Find a cabin, bring my fishing gears and the toys, then hide there and enjoy.

Whoo! Tigris and Talon showed up today. So glad to finally have Predaking complete.

Having the different faces for Fortis and bovis come with Felisabre. Forces buyers to buy Felisabre.

MMC should offer another alternate route. Where buyers who have no interest in buying Felisabre. Are able to buy a $10 kit with just the new faces for fortis and bovis.

MMC are cool like that, they probably will.

Doesn't really force you to buy anything.... it's nice of them to include the extra faces with Felisaber, but the existing Bovis and Fortis faces are fine in my book.

At any rate... Talon arrived last Wednesday, and Tigris arrived on Saturday. They're standing at the center of my gestalt shelf with Herc & M3, so I'll probably end up combining them once I'm back from a business trip at the end of October (I leave this weekend). For now, it' nice to appreciate it their individual splendor.

I'm definitely getting Felisaber (and not for the new faces!) - he'll stay separate so I have something to play with when I do end up combining the Feral Cons.

Or maybe they will offer it separately after Felisaber is released. Like Hexatron's weapons.

Maybe a nice poster here who is good with his current faces and is highly interested in buying Felisaber might give you a good price.

Did I mention that I like the current faces?

And I have Felisaber on preorder? *bats eyelashes*

Seriously though, Tsut, I may be willing to give you a VERY good price on the faces. I'm thinking of starting an Ebay store anyway, so I'd have a great way to get them to you. Think about it, if you want.

On another thread, he once he mentioned something about wanting Feral Rex to be KOed. I was under the assumption that meant he wasn't buying Feral Rex. Just saying...

Anyways, my POL arrives tomorrow. Tons of stuff to open and inspect. But I'm going to start with Tigris and Talon. I already got the rest of the combiner formed awaiting his arms.

Thanks for the offer but I don't yet own any of the ferocicons. Going to wait a few weeks till the NYCC, To see if Hasbro reveals a Combiners Wars Predaking or not.

If you ever buy a Hexatron-Continum and want to sell the new guns, I'll be interested in buying those from your ebay store.

Recently bought the moon boots for MP Grimlock and also bought KO G-2 MP Sideswipe.
